Bird Of Prey Experience Days: Escape to the glorious Scottish countryside and spend some quality time with a number of spectacular birds of prey, gaining first hand knowledge of their eating and hunting habits, and witnessing their beautiful flight displays. This half day experience is perfect for getting some much needed fresh air, and is guaranteed to be a day to remember.
The falconry experience takes place at a country barn in Kirkcaldy, and is run by a friendly group of bird enthusiasts who will make you feel immediately welcome upon arrival. You'll start by being introduced to an Owl and Hawk, who will swoop from trees straight onto your outstretched arm to be rewarded with a tasty snack, landing gracefully with powerful wings. There will be plenty of opportunity to talk to the instructors about the birds and the great work they do at the falconry centre, before pausing for a short refreshment break and moving onto the next part of the experience; the 'close encounter'. Depending on the weather, you'll get up close and personal with either a Falcon, Kite or Caracara, then be introduced to an Eagle for an awesome high-speed dive display, straight onto your gloved hand!
The Half Day Falconry Experience in Fife makes a fantastic day out for families, or a unique gift for animal lovers that they'll never forget!
